“Generosity is not on a list of rules handed
down from on high and it isn’t just a
financial principle. It is a response to the
love of God. When our hearts are aligned
with the Father’s, we respond by loving
others, and living generous lives.”
Living Generously, p. 25
John 3:30 “He must increase,
but I must decrease”(NKJV)
1st Timothy 6:17-19
Instructions to the Rich
17Command those who are rich in this present age
not to be haughty, nor to trust in uncertain riches but
in the living God, who gives us richly all things to
enjoy. 18Let them do good, that they be rich in
good works, ready to give, willing to share,19storing
up for themselves a good foundation for the time to
come, that they may lay hold on eternal life. (NKJV)
Ephesians 6: 7-8
7With good will doing service, as to the
Lord, and not to men:
8Knowing that whatsoever good thing
any man doeth, the same shall he
receive of the Lord, whether he be
bond or free. (NKJV)
Living Generously - SESSION 3
‘POOR’
1 -Jesus knew who had the power
2 - He knew where He came from
3 - He knew where He was going when He died.
What is the difference between telling someone
what you can do to help and asking someone
what you can do to help?
Generosity is saying: I am willing to do whatever it
takes to help you, this stretches us to places we
don’t always feel comfortable.

Which is the easiest for you to reach for –
a pen to write the check or
the ladle to serve others?
Question to ponder for the week –
Where is God asking me to roll up my sleeves
and grab a ladle?
